Codemaster has announced a new adventure game, Overlord Minions for the Nintendo DS. The game is designed exclusively for the Nintendo DS and uses the DS stylus to command your minions in battle or solve puzzles. Here is more info on this upcoming Nintendo DS game:

Meet Giblet, Blaze, Stench, and Zap - an elite Minion crew who, assisted by minion master Gnarl, get star billing in Overlord Minions, an irresistible and accessible puzzle action game, designed exclusively for Nintendo DS. In Overlord Minions, the Overlord commands the Minion team remotely. The Nintendo DS stylus becomes an extension of his evil will and every precise touch screen command is the player-as-Overlord directing, commanding and combining minions in battle, pointing and sweeping them to attack enemies and solving puzzles to execute his dastardly plans.

Controlling the Special Farces team of four, players negotiate fiendish levels and take on a huge range of warped enemies to hunt down the Kindred, a cult dedicated to resurrecting the mighty Dragon Kin, a race of humanoid dragon hybrids, determined to replace the Overlord?s despotism with their own. Extending the Overlord series? trademark humour, gameplay focuses on the mischievous physical comedy of the minion?s antics and is delivered in a gloriously realised cartoon visual style.
